Siege: Qatar presses OHCHR to end rights violations

QNA

Geneva: The State of Qatar lauded the objective and positive attitudes of the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) towards the negative repercussions and human rights violations resulting from the unjust siege and unilateral measures that the country has been subject to in June last year, expressing hope that the Office of the High Commissioner and the Human Rights Council, through their respective mechanisms, especially special procedures, would continue to pay attention to this issue and to take serious and effective measures to end these violations, hold those responsible accountable and compensate those affected in a just and equitable manner.

Qatar said it wants to know what further steps the OHCHR could take on the grave violations that had been committed for more than one year, on basis of the findings of the report of the technical mission of the Office which visited the country in November.
